Just want to thank 2 new friends I met through this site. We had lunch together today--you would have never known we had just met outside the restaurant door! We laughed, we cried, then we laughed some more. This is my second experience of meeting a Navy Mom--and it is outstanding!!!
Still have an empty nest, but it feels much more full with new friends. Thank you NavyforMoms.

Debbie-stress-eater anonymous sounds like a good idea. Rob called last night, and he will not be able to get away for Thanksgiving. He has duty on that Friday. He is in Groton at BESS and had hoped to meet us in Pittsburgh for turkey day but no luck. He will get to be home for Christmas which will be great. But this is the first holiday that we al;l wont be together and I know what you mean about missing the one that is not there. I am trying to look at this a a dry run for when he is deployed for long periods of time but boy do you ever get use to it. Usually I am running around trying to make sure everything is decorated and spotless and I don't care if anything gets done. Hopefully I can get moving before Christmas, which I know I will and be driving everyone else nuts to get it just right for when he does come home.
Does anyone know waht the bases do if anything for the sailors that can't or don't get home for the holidays. I have visions of Rob eating turkey TV dinner for Thanksgiving. or just pb&j sandwiches. Can you send food in dry ice by fed-ex. Boy am I getting bad. Oh well back to work.

A young man wrote his mom and told her about a boy that gets no mail AT ALL in bootcamp. On top of that, the guys make fun of him.

Thought you guys might want to know...

DMax's Mom-
same problem here--have a 77page book to read and pass on--I haven't finished it in almost 3 weeks--and did I mention it's on 77 pages long?!
I, too am a stress eater, plus practicing new recipes for my shows. I try to keep my fruits and yogurts stocked up. Doesn't help that at school we serve pretty high calorie stuff for the kids, too.
No fun cooking for 2, but then I have to thank God I still have my hubby--so 2 is a good number.
Christmas should be good, and we will see our Sailor at Thanksgiving, too. That's my focus.

Yesterday was one of those days I really missed our son. Fortunately, I caught him on IM last night, and he was chatty. Our "conversations" are so much more fun now that he has become a working adult. lol.
Counting the days until Thanksgiving when we get to see him at A school.

I was just on line with one of our sailor's former class mates. It was so strange not to be cleaning up the chili dinner dishes from all his friends.
He is happy, too, at Goose Creek. This week I have been fortunate to see many of his former teachers--going back to Kindergarten. What fun memories. My favorite was picking him up after school, when he had so much to talk about.
Miss being able to call him at any time due to the demands of the classes. However, I treasure these times, too, knowing one day he will be out of communication for months at a time.

Marie & Becky
We are here for you. God made us Navy Moms for a reason. (Some days we don't know why, but we make it through another 24 hours.)
Bc was tough for me, and A school is easier. Today I just called and asked if he were having a good day and to call Dad while I am out of town. I treasure these moments and am counting days until Christmas when we will be together.
Love N4M!!!
